Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus
Author: George Duffield, Jr. (1818-1888) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #461 (1998) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Mark 3:20-35 Lyrics: 1 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
you soldiers of the cross!
Lift high his royal banner,
it must not suffer loss.
From victory on to victory
his army he shall lead
till evil is defeated,
and Christ is Lord indeed.
2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet call obey;
then join the mighty conflict
in this his glorious day.
Be strong in faith and serve him,
against unnumbered foes;
let courage rise with danger,
and strength to strength oppose.
3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
Stand in his power alone,
for human might will fail you --
you dare not trust your own.
Put on the gospel armour,
keep watch with constant prayer;
when duty calls or danger,
be never failing there.
4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
The fight will not be long:
this day the noise of battle,
the next the victor's song.
To everyone who conquers,
a crown of life shall be;
we, with the king of glory,
shall reign eternally. Topics: Christian Character; Discipleship; Dismissal; Baptism (general); Call and Vocation Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING LIGHT

The great Physician now is near

the sympathizing Jesus;
he speaks the drooping heart to cheer;
oh hear the voice of Jesus.
Refrain:
Sweetest note in seraph song,
sweetest name on mortal tongue,
sweetest carol ever sung,
"Jesus, blessed Jesus."
2 His name dispels my guilt and fear,
no other name but Jesus;
oh how my soul delights to hear
the precious name of Jesus! [Refrain]
3 And when to that bright world above
we rise to be with Jesus,
we'll sing around the throne of love
his name, the name of Jesus. [Refrain] Topics: God in Christ; Jesus Christ Name of; Jesus Christ Healer and Teacher Languages: English Tune Title: SYMPATHY
The great Physician now is near
One there is above all others
Author: Newton Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #259 (1873) Meter: Irregular Scripture: Mark 3:33-35 Lyrics: 1 One there is above all others,
Well deserves the name of Friend:
His is love beyond a brother's,
Costly, free, and knows no end:
They who his affections prove,
Find his heart abounds with love.
2 Which of all our friends, to save us,
Could or would have shed his blood?
But our Jesus died to have us
Reconciled in him to God:
This was boundless love indeed;
Jesus is a friend in need.
3 When he loved on earth abased,
Friend of sinners was his name;
Now, above all glory raised,
He rejoices in the same;
Still he calls them brethren, friends,
And to all their wants attends.
4 Oh for grace our hearts to soften!
Teach us, Lord, thy name to love;
We, alas! forget too often
What a Friend we have above:
But if there our souls are brought,
We will love thee as we ought.
